Corn allergy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Corn allergy is a very rare food allergy.[1] People with a true IgE-mediated allergy to corn develop symptoms such as swelling or hives when they eat corn or foods that contain corn. The allergy can be difficult to manage due to many food and non-food products that contain various forms of corn, such as corn starch and modified food starch, among many others. It is an allergy that often goes unrecognized.[medical citation needed]
